I feared eternity as endless gray,
a road that never seemed to bend—
but found it flicker in a flame
that did not strive, yet did not end.
I chased distraction through the day,
to flee the stillness I despised—
until I saw, in lifted Love,
that time itself was baptized.
Eternal is not more of this,
but this made full, and bright, and true—
a single moment set on fire
and filled, O God, with You.
